When to Drink Chateau Gazin, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Chateau Gazin is much better with at least 8-12 years of aging in good vintages. Young vintages can be decanted for 2-3 hours or more. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Chateau Gazin offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 10-30 years of age after the vintage.
